Chapter 178 Actors for "Love Letter"

Before we knew it, time entered 1984.

During the New Year's Day holiday, my younger brother and sister followed their father back to Shenzhen.

As for Lin Jing, she did not go out on the first day of the New Year and stayed at home. What she was doing was to review the first "Mr. Zombie" script of the "Zombie Taoist" series of movie scripts handed over by Wang Jing.

To this day, it has been more than half a month since Lin Jing handed over the outline of the series of movie scripts given to Wang Jing by "The Master of Zombie".

For most Hong Kong films, it is really easy for a screenwriter team and more than a dozen screenwriters to write a script that has an outline in half a month. It even makes many people feel incredible.

After all, there are many Hong Kong movies that start to set up projects after having a creative idea and an idea, and start filming after doing some simple preparation. As for the script, think about it again during the filming process.

Just like the advertising slogan says, there must be roads and Toyota cars before the car arrives at the mountain.

With creative ideas, you can shoot. When shooting, it will come naturally, and the story lines and other things will come naturally, so there is no need to worry at all.

As for whether this story is logical, whether it can stand scrutiny, or whether it has loopholes and flaws, it doesn’t matter. What’s important is that it has some highlights. Just say it all looks good.

Wang Jing and the others have developed this bad habit of randomly doing scripts because of inertial thinking. Although Lin Jing repeatedly emphasized the importance of scripts, they also listened to them at the beginning. But when it was the turn of actual operation, they immediately opened high and closed low.

After more than ten or twenty days of work, both Wang Jing, Liu Zhenwei and other screenwriters thought that the script of "Mr. Zombie" was already very good and could be handed over, so they handed it over.

In fact, the original version of "Mr. Zombie" has been done well, with a relatively compact plot and a good funny aspect. The new version of "Mr. Zombie" has not made too many modifications in the script.

It's just because this is a planned series of movies, unlike a single one. There are more sequel stories later, with a larger framework. Compared with the original version, some foreshadowings are added, and several characters that will appear in the subsequent stories.

What kind of wonderful ideas will appear when creating collectively and using brainstorming?

If you see a Hollywood blockbuster with witty words in it, you will be admired and surprised. When you sigh in your heart, you don’t have to doubt that it is the crystallization of collective wisdom.

All the lines are produced by screenwriters spending a lot of time to revise and polish. They are not the shining points of some powerful man’s whim.

Thinking of this, Lin Jing opened the script with anticipation.

"It's really easy to change the country and nature is hard to change!"

The result made Lin Jing very disappointed, because after watching the entire script, she found that this version of "Mr. Zombie" not only did not make any progress, but was even more rough and bad than the original one.

In this script, Wang Jing really fully developed his spirit of not being afraid of the old and being the most important thing, and he adapted and moved many familiar scenes into it.

After closing the script, Lin Jing almost couldn't help but call Wang Jing and let him go over immediately.

After finally calming down the anger in her heart, she thought that the first labor of the screenwriter team was not satisfactory. Perhaps it was because the team was established too short and the running-in was not enough, and everyone's subjective initiative was not fully utilized, resulting in 1+1 less than 2.

There should be another reason. Wang Jing, who is involved in the screenwriter, may also be the director. In order to make the script write in the direction he wants, he used his power, so that the script showed his will everywhere, which means that his power hindered the team's performance.

If you look carefully, this script will make people think it is the fruit of Wang Jing's labor alone.

After figuring out these two points, Lin Jing issued her own "order".

First, let Wang Jing put her position right. Everyone is equal in the process of screenwriter, and no one can surpass others; secondly, she said that no matter how much time it takes, if the script cannot satisfy her, even if it is revised for another three months, it will not be passed.

This order forces the entire screenwriter team to do their best to modify it. Wang Jing will not feel so happy.

On the other hand, when Wang Jing and Liu Zhenwei were busy revising the script of "Zombie Taoist", Lin Jing confirmed that the first actor of the first movie "Love Letter" she wanted to direct, the actor of the girl Fujii Kiri.

Zhou Huimin was too stubborn. After deciding to drop out of school, no matter how Lin Jing persuaded him, he could not persuade him.

In the end, Lin Jing had no choice but to make a "deal" with her.

Zhou’s mother can find a caretaker, and Zhou Huimin continues to go to school, but she can work and do part-time jobs after school, such as making movies.

The profession of actors, especially movie actors, will undoubtedly be more paid than most manual laborers.

Zhou Huimin thought about it, discussed it with his mother, and agreed to Lin Jing.

For the "Love Letter" that Lin Jing is about to direct, although this is about to be six or seven months away, she has been doing preparations in advance, such as breaking up the script, drawing storyline scripts, considering the candidates for actors, etc.

It is not difficult to break down scripts and plotting scripts, after all, she has been doing similar work in her previous life.

Considering the candidate for actors, it is relatively a bit of a headache.

It is not difficult for the heroines, the adult female Fujii Kiku and Watanabe Hiroko. There is Chung Chuhong who has grown up in Hong Kong, not to mention Taiwan, Lin Qingxia, who is from an art film, is the most suitable candidate.

The male protagonist Qiu Yemao, Zhou Runfa, Liang Jiahui, Zhang Guorong and so on can all be done.

The only difficulty is that the role of the girl Fujii Kiku has never been sure about it.

There are not a shortage of female stars who are still in Girls' Generation at this time. Wang Shuxian, who is far away and close to him, is just about the age of the moment, and Wang Shuxian is not not beautiful enough.

However, Wang Shuxian is a little taller and it is not easy to find a male actor who is a good actor who is good at acting with her and can produce good chemical reactions on the big screen. After all, male stars in Hong Kong and Taiwan are generally not very tall, and they are a little older.

When she was in a dilemma, she didn't expect Zhou Huimin at first. She just thought that Zhou Huimin was still studying, and Lin Jing didn't want to interfere with her study life, so she didn't think deeply about it.

But now you don’t have to think about it anymore, just make sure.

If you think about it seriously, Zhou Huimin is indeed more suitable for the role of the girl Fujii Kiku.

Under seventeen years old, he is about the same age as the girl Fujiiki. Compared to what Lin Jing saw last year, Zhou Huimin has become a girl with "change" and has not only lost weight, but also outstanding, becoming more elegant and elegant.

If you have a little more acting skills, you will almost be perfect.

In fact, Zhou Huimin only performs her true nature as a girl, and does not require too much acting skills.

Of course, not requiring too much acting does not mean that Zhou Huimin can perform immediately. She is just a student at school and is still poor in acting.

So before filming "Love Letter", she needs to do some acting training.

In terms of acting training, the best and most successful one in Hong Kong is undoubtedly the wireless training class.

If Zhou Huimin can join the wireless training class, it would be better.

After letting Zhou Huimin join the wireless training class, Lin Jing believed that as long as she spoke, the wireless side with a good cooperative relationship would give her face, but she didn't want to rudely say that and owe everyone favors.

So what should be done?

Lin Jing thought for a while and thought of a solution.

Isn’t "Love Letter" another important role - the young Fujiiki has not confirmed it yet, there are very suitable candidates on the wireless - such as Liang Chaowei.

There is no doubt about Liang Chaowei's acting talent. In terms of age, it is still possible to be a middle school student because of his tender face and makeup.

As long as she proposes, let the wireless people star in the role of the young Fujii Kiku, and then follow the flow and let Zhou Huimin join the wireless training class, which is just a killing two birds with one stone.

After producing two movies in Hong Kong with a box office of over 20 million and a total box office of over 10 million in Time and Space Film Studio, I wonder how many actors hope to star in the movies in Time and Space Film Studio.

Because as long as the movies in the Time and Space Film Studio are the box office, as long as they appear, they will be in a high position and their value will be high.

This is true for the happy girls of "Happy Ghost", Li Saifeng, Li Lizhen, Luo Meiwei, Liang Jiahui, and Sally Yeh.

What's more, this is a movie written by Lin Jing.

There is a rumor in the film industry now: as long as the movie written by Lin Jing, you can win the world!

Lin Jing believes that not only will the wireless side not refuse, but will be overjoyed and excited.

As for Liang Chaowei, although he is the "Wireless Five Tigers", he is on the screen and can be used on the big screen. I am afraid that only Liu Dehua, who is also the same as the "Wireless Five Tigers", would not be envious of him.
